Why work with us?

We’re a fast-paced startup that is delivering life-changing products. We have products that you can believe in and a team that works hard to make sure that we can get those products into the hands of the people that need them most. Working at Pacagen will be an exciting growth opportunity for your career. You’ll get exposure to world-class partners, mentors, and innovative people from every field.

Why NOT work with us?

You’ll notice that the phrase “fast-paced” is in this job description multiple times. Building an amazing, profitable company in a few years is not easy and we aren’t here to pretend like it is (believe us, we’ve done this before). Startups are stressful and not made for everyone, but on the flip side extremely rewarding. The best performers get a career boost more drastic than anything they could imagine, but not everyone is fit for the job.
